Oil and gas facilities service provider Petrofac has announced that its subsidiary Petrofac Emirates has been awarded two contracts by Abu Dhabi Company for Onshore Oil Operations (ADCO) for a total value of US$687mn in the UAE
The first contract awarded was for a US$500mn onshore engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) project for the expansion of gas compression facilities at the Bab Field, 150km south-west of Abu Dhabi.
Petrofac Emirates will undertake modifications to three of the existing compressor stations and install a new fourth facility. The scope of work also includes 27 well head facilities, associated gas pipelines, direct gathering manifold and modifications to remote manifold stations.
The project will be completed in a phased manner in around 30 months, after which commissioning will commence, company sources said.
Subramanian Sarma, managing director of Petrofac’s Onshore Engineering & Construction, said, “I am delighted that we have been able to secure this project. To extend our portfolio with ADCO, who are a very important customer for us, is particularly pleasing and continues to reinforce our position in the Middle East.”
The second project will consist of another EPC contract for the development of the Bab Habshan-1 project. Valued at US$187mn, the contract is expected to be completed within 20 months.
It includes the provision of water injection clusters, oil production wells, water injection wells, associated electrical and instrumentation facilities, pipelines (headers and flow lines), overhead power transmission lines and modifications at remote degassing stations.
